ith Avian Influenza (bird flu) an everpresent threat to global poultry producers, the premier veterinary & livestock disinfectants Virkon™ S and
Virkon™ LSP, from LANXESS, are independently proven to kill multiple strains of the Avian Influenza virus rapidly. An outbreak of Avian Influenza will decimate flocks and can be

Head of Technical Marketing for Biosecurity and Hygiene, Tony Pearson explains, “Enhanced Avian Influenza biosecurity is an area that most producers are giving great thought to, but this needs to be worked at and tailored to specific farms, with constant review. Producers need to think about how Avian Influenza can get onto farm and then think of policies to try and prevent this. For more information, visit www.virkon.com
